THE EXOTIC BLACKBERRY-LILY 
Belamcanda Chinensis 
Its orange-colored blooms, produced on erect branching stems- 
are 2 inches across and strikingly spotted with purplish orange. 
A member of the Iris family, it attains a height of 2 feet, and it 
may be planted in the rock garden, the border or among low 
shrubs. 
The flowers are extremely decorative and when left on the plant 
they are followed by shining jet black seeds held in a cluster 
strikingly akin to a large, luscious Blackberry. The dried stems 
with the seeds attached are very attractive. 
The Blackberry-Lily blooms from June to August and with 
the seed pods they beautify the garden until frost. It is very hardy 
and vigorous, thriving in the poorest soil. 
I can offer a few hundred strong divisions. 
50c. each, $3.50 per 10, $30.00 per 100 
NEW LOUISIANA IRIS SPECIES 
Gorgeous new Iris in a rainbow of color are now available for 
your garden. Beautiful shades—yellow, fawn and copper are 
included in the group which also features varied hues of violet, 
lavender and blue. 
These gems are collected in the swampy area of the southeastern 
Louisiana but are perfectly at home in the north. They like a 
rich, moist soil, but seem to grow well under the most ordinary 
conditions. Many thousands are being grown in the New York 
Botanical Garden, and they were awarded a Gold Medal at the 
Westchester Flower Show. They flower throughout June and 
are more graceful and lasting than most garden Iris. 
Strong divisions in mixture. $3.50 per 10, $30.00 per 100.
